    So, I spent the first 3/4" of my life messing with speed, and lowering stuff. I, admittedly don't know much about off-road suspension. So what I've done to my truck, has been basically copying what seems to be proven to work by other guys. I've got a 2011 TRD OR, Dobinson's all-around. L59-111-R in the rear, and GS59-220 struts with C59-352 coils.

    I just ordered DRT shackle hangers. And I'd like to eventually do a shock relocation. How do I know what length shocks I need? Or if my leafs are suited for the extra travel? What about bump stops, how do I know what length I'll need? I don't mind doing the work to find these answers, I just don't know how to find out.
